What makes Natural Scientific products unique?
Natural Scientific creates clean-label, additive-free supplements that prioritize purity, sustainability, and effectiveness.

Where do you source your ingredients?
Where do you source your ingredients?
Our ingredients are sourced from trusted farms around the world, selected for their purity, sustainability, and ethical practices. For instance:
- Selenium and Vitamin C from India, using traditional Ayurvedic and modern extraction techniques.
- Citrus fiber sourced locally near our facilities in Florida to minimize transportation time and preserve freshness.
We conduct regular audits and testing of raw materials to ensure they meet our high standards. You can learn more on our Ingredients and Process pages.
Why do you use whole-plant extracts instead of isolates?
Why do you use whole-plant extracts instead of isolates?
Whole-plant extracts retain a broader spectrum of phytochemicals, flavonoids, antioxidants, and other nutrients that naturally occur together in the source material. These compounds often work synergistically to enhance absorption, bioavailability, and overall health benefits—more so than isolated compounds. Using whole‐plant extracts helps ensure more balanced and holistic effects.
